Wow...Thanks for sending this. That's a lot of added weight! I'm sure they work well but I don't think I'm going to add them since I don't track the car. With the MRC, the BMR arms and bushings, and the Pilot Super Sport tires I've switched over to it handles just fine the way it is for me. I've tried taking tight corners hard and can't even get my tires to squeal. When I intentionally break the rear-end loose, it snaps right back into place without any wobble or tangible flexing. It feels good and very controlled so I'm not going to mess with it unless I start feeling it give or until I start tracking the car.
